Isaiah 24:7 Context
5The earth also is defiled vnder the inhabitants thereof: because they haue transgressed the lawes, changed the ordinance, broken the euerlasting couenant. 6Therefore hath the curse deuoured the earth, and they that dwell therin are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left. 7The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merrie hearted doe sigh. 8The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that reioyce, endeth, the ioy of the harpe ceaseth. 9They shall not drinke wine with a song, strong drinke shall bee bitter to them that drinke it.

Wesley's Notes for Isaiah 24:7
24:7 Mourneth - Because there are none to drink it. Grief is ascribed to senseless creatures by a figure usual in all authors. Languisheth - Because there are no people left to dress it, or gather its grapes. The merry - hearted - That made their hearts merry with wine.
